Islam nowadays,
people consider some civilization the most civilized and the best ever. they
think they have safety, prosperity and stability, but welcome to the
real world! the world where there are wars, worry and financial crises. people
call for animals rights while there are some human souls who don't have
the simplest human rights. So,
what are you waiting for? the
worse! Didn't
you see we should change?? but how?! Let'
start from your self, we think that the right way of change is to apply the
basics of Islam to our life, because all the desired values are being emanated
from it. It' the constitution that we should seek. but
our main problem that we separate between life and religion and that's results
in being Far
from Religion Muslims
succeeded from 1400 year ago when they follow the footsteps of prophet's path
and they began to fail when they swerved from his path. Muslims in our present
time are in dire need not only to remember the teaching of Allah and his prophet
Muhammad (pbuh) but also to put them into practice. Since we got lost in this
lone life away from religion, problems began to arise. What can be worse than
mind and manners inferiority? How
could we imagine that a calamity like this happen in the Ummah of Muhammad
(pbuh). Muhammad who is a messenger of God to deliver the message of Islam to
all over the world. Muhammad who has changed the complete Arabian peninsula
from paganism and idolatry to worship of One God, from tribal quarrels and wars
to national solidarity and cohesion, from drunkenness and debauchery to sobriety
and piety, from lawlessness and anarchy to disciplined living, from utter
bankruptcy to the highest standards of moral excellence. Human history has never
known such a complete transformation of a people or a place before or since -
and IMAGINE all these unbelievable wonders in JUST OVER TWO DECADES. Who
could imagine that Islam is accused the religion of Violence?! Islam
always calls for tolerance. Not only in the state of peace but also in the state
of war. The Prophet (pbuh) advice Muslims some military manners;
Don't kill a woman, a child or an old man. You will find men are only
worshipping so do not approach them. Don't burn plants. Don't destroy houses.
Don't attack in the night so that women and children aren't frightened. Even
on pacts, Muslims proofed their religion is the religion of mercy. In
"Ummar's pact" when Muslims conquered Jerusalem in the regime of Ummar
Ibn Al-khattab, people of Jerusalem agreed to get Muslims into their city
without fighting. They agreed on this pact that said; "This
is what the slave of Allah; Ummar the khalifa of Muslims guarantee safety to the
people of Jeruslem. He gurantee them safety for themselves, their money, their
churches and thier crosses. Their churches will not be inhabited or destroyed.
Nothing will be taken from it. People will not be forced to leave their religion
and no one will be hurt from them. May Allah witness this pact, the prophet, the
khalifa and the Muslims." Who
could imagine that a city like Baghdad which was a capital for the Islamic
nation for hundred of years and the place where Christian and Jews can have
religious freedom is under occupation. Where
are you Jaffar Ibn Abi Taleb when you explained Islam to the king of Abyssinia.
When you said; "Dear
King; we
were ignorant people. We worshipped statues (dolls) and we ate dead animals. We
also committed adultery, boycotted our relations. We didn't give good treatment
to our neighbours. The strong were extremely unfair to the weak. We stayed like
this until God sent a messenger who we are certain about his honesty, purity and
good breed. He called us to worship one God and leave our all beliefs in stones
and statues. our messenger ordered us we must never lie, we must be honest and
be kind to our relatives and neighbors and we must stop shading blood. He told
us we should never take orphans properties and speak ill of honest women. He
ordered us to steadfast in prayers, fast in the month of Ramadan. We took him
for granted and we followed him and all the instructions of God. We did the dos
and we avoided the don'ts." So
where are you sir Jaffar Ibn Abi Taleb to explain our message to the world. We
assume that every problem we have are because of being far from religion. So,
Let's abide by our religion to control life and win the hereafter. life
is just the way to reach the after death life Let's focus on collecting rewards
from Allah. let's make "Islam" the big slogan everything is gone under
it. And
finally remember the one who gets in the god's fortress, no one will get him. "we
were nothing and Islam made us something. People who seek dignity away from
Islam , God will humiliate them." Adham
